The Analysis of Hungarian Indebtedness after 1989
Kudláček, Jan ; Petrášek, František (advisor) ; Vokoun, Marek (referee)
Hungary has struggled with budget problems throughout its post-socialist history. With knowledge of economic theory it is possible to analyze the evolution of Hungary's debt after 1989 and thus deduce its weaknesses. Populism and fiscal irresponsibility have characterized majority of Hungarian governments to some extent. Hence, the key to understanding the debt of Hungary may be found on the political level of budgetary policy. With regard to the economic situation, Hungary was forced to implement significant cost-saving measures in recent years. These measures are evaluated at the end of the work. They can be crucial not only in terms of the budgetary situation but also with respect to the perspective on the future economic development and competitiveness of the entire economy.

Bízková, Jitka ; Petrášek, František (advisor) ; Gráf, Václav (referee)
This diploma thesis represents an effort to contribute to the solving of the problem of optimal relations between the institutional environment, entrepreneurial activity and innovative activity in terms of securing a higher degree of competitiveness of the current economy in the Czech Republic. The institutional environment is perceived as the rules of the game, under which social interactions take place. When defining the business activity the Schumpeter's theory of creative destruction is not ignored and the issue of innovation activity is viewed from the perspective of institutional change. Various forms of institutional environment are analyzed in the selected European countries (Germany, Finland, Switzerland), whose competitiveness is based on successful innovation activities. The research is extended by the comparison of innovation policies and the analysis of the level of ICT infrastructure of the above mentioned countries. The significance of the institutional framework for innovation activities is evaluated in the final part of the thesis. The content of the corrective measures in the current economic policy of Czech Republic is drawn from the evaluation.

Lukács, Viktória ; Ševčíková, Michaela (advisor) ; Petrášek, František (referee)
The financial crisis had a very negative influence on the economies of the Central European Region including Hungary. Its currency has depreciated significantly and the number of the indebted citizens have increased to such an extent that the country had threatened with bankruptcy. The aim of my bachelor thesis is to analyze the instruments of economic policy of Hungary after the EU entry. The first section will therefore focus on the general economic situation of Hungary, especially after the outbreak of the crisis. Furthermore, I will consider the fluctuations of the forint and discuss in detail the international help provided by the IMF. Hungary is slowly getting out of recession because of these funds. This process has a significant impact on the area of South Slovakia, which region is very sensitive to changes both in Slovak and the Hungarian economy. To find out the level of effects of the Hungarian economy on the region of southern Slovakia, I will conduct a questionnaire survey among the people of this region. Questions will concern their consumption, job opportunities and level of living. Using these data I will focus on analyzing the above mentioned situation.

Regulací proti hazardu?
Lehmanová, Zuzana ; Písař, Pavel (advisor) ; Petrášek, František (referee)
My bachelor thesis focuses on regulation of gambling in the area of the Czech republic. In the introduction I would like to state reasons for the regulation of this market which are often mentioned. As well as the reasons for regulation I also take into consideration the liberal point of view. I am also going to discuss an influence of the regulations on different target groups. The purpose of my thesis is to discover if the existing and proposed limitations of gambling in the Czech republic are effective and help to restrict gambling and its negative impact. I would like to discuss this question in more depth via an example of bets on the Internet also called technical games. Nowadays, these technical games are expanding extremely fast. Another idea I am going to deal with is a contribution of legislation to this increasing trend and also the precise way of the regulation of these games and how are they affected by the limitations of other branches of gambling. Eg. If there is a transfer of users of other games ( as an effect of the possibility of communities to restrict the number of slot-machines in particular area).

The Schengen Information System and police cooperation
Šelmeciová, Eliška ; Písař, Pavel (advisor) ; Petrášek, František (referee)
The topic of my thesis is the Schengen Information System (SIS). The main objective is to analyze the functionality of the system, first of all, whether its operation ever brought any concrete results, or is it merely just another administrative burden for those who must use it. Therefore I would like to focus on whether the SIS is an effective and beneficial for the Czech Republic, or if there is any other and should be a cheaper way to address this issue. The answer to these questions will be sought on the basis of an evaluation on the performance of this system two years after its launch in the Czech Republic. In the beginning I only briefly mention the history of Schengen, and then I will address the issue of the SIS. SIS is created and used by all member countries and includes information on persons and things that are important to ensuring security and justice in the common area. SIS is connected to several of our databases, such as distributing or PATRMV, which uses the Police of the Czech Republic in search of motor vehicles and registration plates. Part of this work should be a short questionnaire, which should give the answer to how people perceive the abolition of frontiers, whether it is for them an advantage or disadvantage, and whether the abolition of borders under their safety is being compromised in the form of illegal migration.
